Talk:Cornish hedge

Expert needed
Someone with a little more expertise should go over this article, the quote is inappropriate and probably violates WP:fair use. Cheers, Jack (talk) 00:27, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
 * What particular sections of "Fair Use" does the Editor think this violates, please? It is from a newspaper article, advertising a course in making Cornish hedges, presumably supplied as a press release by an expert, who runs the courses.  The probability that anyone would claim compensation for copyright violation is, IMHO, very low.
 * I do not understand why the Editor regards the quote as "inappropriate". It neatly defines how a Cornish hedge is made, which the linked The Guild of Cornish Hedgers article does not. Would it be better if the two articles were merged? Vernon White  . . . Talk 22:37, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I just think it's a messy way to start an article, a bit more information would be a much better introduction to the subject. I agree that it's unlikely someone would "claim compensation" but that's not why you don't just copy and paste everything. The Guild of Cornish Hedgers on the other hand seems to be advertising the Guild rather than describing it and is blatently copied from this site. Is it really notable enough to deserve its own page?

 * Yes. More work needed (as with most WP articles!)  Vernon White  . . . Talk 08:23, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

How different?
How different is a Cornish hedge from a Devon hedge, other than its location? Haven't I seen something similar in Gloucestershire? Vernon White '''. . . Talk''' 20:52, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
 * The Cornish hedge started being built in west Cornwall ~4000 bc and gradually spread east, eventually reaching Devon. As far as I can make out the devon hedge is just a version of the Cornish one. In Cornwall most of the hedges are Cornish hedges rather than hedgerows, as far as I can see there doesn't seem to be a distinction made in the Devon hedge article statistics between Devon hedges and hedgerows.
